摘要:
An absolute length measuring apparatus comprising light sources, a beam splitter, an object of measurement, a scanning mirror, a light receiver, sampling parts and a distance measuring part. The light sources emit alternately a plurality of coherent light beams having different wavelengths. The beam splitter splits the coherent light beam from the light sources into two optical paths. The object of measurement is located on one of the two optical paths stemming from the beam splitter. The scanning mirror is located on the other optical path stemming from the beam splitter and made movable in the direction of optical axis. The light receiver receives both the reflected light beam from the object of measurement and the reflected light beam from the scanning mirror through the beam splitter. The sampling parts generate sampling signals of various wavelengths by sampling the output of the light receiver every time the light sources emit a coherent light beam while scanned by the scanning mirror. The distance measuring part assumes a synthetic wavelength signal having a wavelength sufficiently greater than any individually generated wavelength based on the phase relations of the sampling signals, and measures the distance to the object of measurement in accordance with the synthetic wavelength signal.

A wavelength stabilizing light source apparatus comprising a light source, a beam splitter, a scanning mirror, a reflector, a first and a second light receiver, a phase detector and a wavelength stabilizer. The first light receiver receives a first interference signal formed from the interference between coherent light coming from the scanning mirror and coherent light reflected by the first reflecting surface. The second light receiver receives a second interference signal formed from the interference between the coherent light coming from the scanning mirror and the coherent light reflected by the second reflecting surface. The phase detector detects the difference in phase between the first and the second interference signal. The wavelength stabilizer stabilizes the wavelength of the light source by keeping constant the phase difference detected by the phase detector. The apparatus also includes an optical path length difference forming device for keeping a constant difference in length between the first optical path of its first member and the second optical path of its second member despite changes in temperature.

A position detecting apparatus comprises a light emitter which activates a laser source to emit a light beam so that mode hopping occurs, an interference optical system which directs the light beam from the laser source to a measuring light path on which an object to be measured is located and a reference light path on which a reflection mirror is placed and merges the reflected light beams coming back on the light paths so that the reflected light beams interfere with each other, a light sensor which receives the interference light beam provided by the interference optical system, and a position detector which determines the position of the object of measurement based on the interference signals produced by the light sensor before and after mode hopping caused by the light emitter.

A deformable mirror control device is provided with improved response characteristic by devising the mode of control even if the deformable mirror has a large time constant in comparison with the response speed required in applications such as the retinal camera. The deformable mirror device comprises a deformable mirror 10 having a reflective surface deformed with an applied voltage, and a voltage control circuit 20 for controlling the voltage applied to the deformable mirror 10. Here, the voltage control circuit 20 produces a steady-state voltage at which the reflective surface of the deformable mirror 10 takes an intended shape in a steady state, and produces a transient voltage that causes the reflective surface of the deformable mirror 10 to deform toward the intended shape, and also produces a transient voltage that causes the shape of the reflective surface of the deformable mirror 10 to shift quickly toward the intended shape.
